No return after ginger potter's defeat

Bloody 'ell Terence - not one guess within 4 days.

Methinks clues are called for

Sorry Ig, got your PM....I'll be honest, I thought no-one had bothered to have a go at the latest clue (I missed your above post) so was prepared to let the thread peter out

You've solved 'no return' = on, however the 'after' denotes it going at the end of the surname on this occasion

No HP connection with the 'ginger potter'

Ginger potter = Steve.

No return after defeat = Beaton.

Steve Beaton.

Jockey

Robbie Supple ?

Correct surname.

Willie Supple?

I know this is wrong - but forgive me, I can't resist.
